About this file
This file is a Request for Information (RFI) Questions and Answers document for solicitation FA255026Q0032, which addresses clarifications on the scope, eligibility requirements, and logistics for procuring and installing office furniture at Schriever Space Force Base. The primary clarifications address: (1) Flooring and cove base replacement are not part of the contractor's scope, contrary to the initial SAM.gov posting; (2) Electrical work is only required if necessary to sustain new furniture installation, and contractors may exclude licensed electrical trade work if existing underfloor junction boxes and available power can accommodate the proposed design; (3) The site visit on 10 September 2026 was optional and non-attendance does not affect quotation eligibility; (4) Primes may use small-business manufacturers and certified installation subcontractors provided all parties maintain active SAM registration; and (5) No SBA waiver applies to the Nonmanufacturer Rule for NAICS 337214.
Additional key clarifications include: design files are only required after award upon request rather than with initial quotations; existing furniture disposal is at the contractor's discretion and does not require DRMO processing; the freight and regular elevators are available for equipment movement; and SOW quantities should match proposed layouts. The solicitation requires small-business status for both prime contractors and any manufacturers involved, with strict compliance to the Nonmanufacturer Rule requiring manufacturer company names and UEI/CAGE codes. Contract quotes were due by 21 September 2026, with no additional contract-level insurance requirements beyond vehicle insurance specified for base access.
